Jason's Y Story

Jason's Y Story

Jason not only participates in and enjoys the routine activities in class, he also has friends, can communicate his needs and is happy! But that wasn’t always the case. A year ago he came to the Y with very basic skills, he hardly spoke, could not focus or cooperatively participate in group activities, was often overstimulated and ran away or used aggression to cope. With the support of his dad, and a team of caring teachers and leaders who wouldn't give up on him, Jason is now a more confident, successful student!
